Cornerspotter is a new Curbed Seattle feature in which we show you a historical photo taken somewhere in the city and you identify the location. Impress fellow Curbed readers with your knowledge by leaving guesses in the comments or send them to our tipline: seattle@curbed.com. We'll post the answer on Monday. And hey: no cheating!
These days there's a lot of talk about Seattle's police force using drones and surveillence cameras and all kinds of high-tech stuff. So let's take a look back at a simpler time when the Model-T car was considered state-of-the-art. Pictured here is Seattle's No. 5 Precinct in 1912. Don't know about you but we were expecting more mustaches. The specific address of this station remains unknown but you might be able to figure out what neighborhood this precinct was located in. Look closely. So, what Seattleneighborhood was this police station in?
